DOI: 10.1002/jmv.26881
Abstract: We discuss the statistical method used in Italy to estimate the reproduction number Rt at the regional level. In Italy, Rt is not only used to provide a picture of the epidemic spread, but rather… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/mma.7586
Abstract: The basic reproduction number (R0) often cannot be explicitly computed when dealing with continuously age‐structured epidemic models. In this paper, we numerically compute R0 of a PDE model for a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/sim.7935
Abstract: The standard mass action, which assumes that infectious disease transmission occurs in well-mixed populations, is popular for formulating compartmental epidemic models. Compartmental epidemic models often follow standard mass action for simplicity and to gain insight… read more here.
